If you check the "resources" that the card uses you will probably find
that the IRQ and Base address are not the standard coms ports ones.
I am not familiar with the Dell GX620 but have a look in device
manager under hardware.  Then find the comms ports or the serial card
and see what irq and address do they use.  Normal on board ones are:
Com1:  IRQ=4  Base address = 03F8 (hex)
Com2:  IEQ=3   Base Address= 02f8  (hex)
Some of the addin serial cards had software that let you alter the
port settings, and some did not.  If you can find what chip it uses
google that chip number and you may find new drivers for it.
The software for the palm Vx pda may have a configuration page where
you can change the comms settings.
